CHAPTER 1
PROBLEM
INTRUDUCTION
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is firstly identified in Wuhan

city, Hubei Province, China in December 2019 as a pneumonia of
unknown origin. Because of that, several governmental measures have
been taken to counteract the risk of disease spreading. These measures
include travel restrictions, mandatory quarantines for travelers, social
distancing, bans on public gatherings, schools and universities closure,
business closures, self-isolation, asking people to work at home,
curfews, and lockdown. These measures have a negative worldwide
effect on the business, health, tourism and specially education. The
COVID-19 pandemic has had far-reaching effects on nearly every
aspect of society, especially education. Schools in the Philippines, and
in most countries in the world, were closed in March 2020 as nations
developed lockdown measures to prevent further spread of the virus.
While educators transitioned from traditional face-to-face learning to
digital platforms for remote teaching, many challenges arose that
required quick solutions and changes to policy and procedures to
provide equitable and appropriate remote learning to all students.
COVID-19 pandemic has affected all levels of the education system.
Educational institutions around the world (in 192 countries) have
either temporarily closed or implemented localized closures affecting
about 1.7 billion of student population worldwide. Due to the
suspension of classroom teaching in many colleges and universities, a
switch to the online teaching for undergraduate and graduate students
becomes effective. However, many students have no access to the
online teaching due to lack of either the means or the instruments due
to economical and digital divide. Therefore, the current study was
conducted to analyze the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on the
academic performance of students and researchers during the
lockdown. The current cross-sectional study sought to investigate the
effects of COVID-19 lockdown on academic performance. The
COVID-19 epidemic has created uncertainty in many important areas
of national and international life, including education. For instance, it's
unclear how last spring's school closings affected students
accomplishments or how this academic years quick shift into online
platform for the majority of instruction would continue to affect
achievement. Making judgments regarding whether and when to
resume in-person education without data on how the virus affects
every student, weigh the potential health dangers of in-person
instruction against the needs of the students, who may the learning
remains challenging. Even now, decision-makers in the field of
education must benefit from being in their physical schools.
Hence, one of the affected outcomes of COVID-19 can be the

academic performance of students as they experience their first
attempt towards online teaching and therefore, their level of
satisfaction from online teaching can also be significant to be
measured. To address the significance of online teaching in such
emergency cases, the present study aimed to investigate the effects of
COVID-19 on the academic performance of students and their
satisfaction level with online teaching during the COVID-19 outbreak.
Although advances in educational technology in the last few decades
proved immensely useful during this pandemic, teachers, students,
parents, and other relevant educators faced many challenges that they
were not ready to overcome. School leaders and teachers rushed to
completely redesign their educational delivery models, parents
balanced work demands with the responsibility of ensuring their
children were accessing instruction from home, and students struggled
to stay engaged and connected with their teachers and peers online.
Many scholars undertook broad research on educational practices to
explore how COVID-19 has impacted teaching and learning
nationally, with several organizations conducting and reporting
surveys in phases throughout the first four months of remote learning.
Academic performance refers to the level of knowledge, skills, and
competencies that a student has acquired in the educational field,
which is often evaluated with the grades obtained in the subject that
make up the study plan. Several factors affect negatively the
performance of grade 12 students, for example a high and anxiety
level, a negative attitude of the student toward the school or study,
excessive internet use, poor sleep quality and insufficient learning
strategies. Most of the studies concluded that the students preferred
face-to-face than the online learning and modular learning. The result
show that COVID-19 had negative effects on education, several
researcher's conducted a study into the various factors that have been
linked to student's academic performance. This study explained that
students experienced learning loss during the lockdown period and
some students found preoccupied with household chores while others
embraced different jobs.
Aside from studies students need continuous supporting management.

Teachers and parents play particular role on psychological and
physical well-being to make students focused and aware in class. It
will give students a graphic representation to see only by the click of
the button. Some students lag behind on occasion they are afraid to
move this teacher nor take they experience to say again and again.
Acknowledging that changing our schooling system makes time, we
also make students to see outside academic institutions to adjust their
skills and increase their mindsets. A recent set of learning
organisations like General Assembly move between our legacy
educational institutions and the work helping to correct those realities.
Utilizing these organizations to make micro-credentials is a good
means to increase exposure to new technical skills not accessible to
students in the traditional university environment. These 'mini-degrees
or credentials will help prepare students for the businesses of the time
by engaging skills and knowledge across fields and throughout their
lifetimes.
Statement of The Problem
The purpose of this study is to examine the students’ perceptions

regarding of how the COVID-19 pandemic change their academic
performance, and particularly the effects on students’ learning.
This study aims to answer the following questions:
1. What are the mental effects of COVID-19 pandemic of the

student’s ?
2. Why is that the lockdown during COVID-19 affected the student’s

academic performance?
3. How is it affect the student’s academic performance?
Scope And Limitations
This study mainly focuses on contrasting and figuring out whether the
Covid-19 epidemic has favorable or detrimental affect’s on student’s
academic performance in Grades 11 and 12. This study was carried
out during the S.Y. 2022–2023 semester at the Iligan Computer
Institute (ICI), which is situated in Zone 2, Bugo, Cagayan de Oro
City. The Iligan Computer Institute students will employ face-to-face
survey questionnaires as the method of data collection.
Significance Of The Study
The purpose of this study is to be able to find out the Major effects of
Covid-19 Pandemic to the student academic performance. Thus, this
study will be beneficial to the following:
Teachers: It would give teachers new suggestions for how to interact

with their students and new methods for helping them while they are
in class. As a result, learning will be more successful and the
interaction between students and teachers will be enhanced.
Students: This study will serve as a foundation for how students

handle and successfully navigate their schoolwork in a variety of
scenarios.
Future Researchers: This study will also serve as a foundation for

subsequent research, which will give them access to new data or
knowledge about the key effects of the Covid-19 Pandemic on
students.
Hypothesis
This study is designed to assess the following hypothesis:
- Covid-19 doesn’t affect the students academic performance.

- Covid-19 does affect the students academic performance
Conceptual Framework

The research's schematic diagram is displayed in Figure 1. The link

between independent variables and dependent variables is shown in
the schematic diagram. The Independent Variable first focuses on the
Covid-19 epidemic as the root reason. The effect of the Covid-19
epidemic on students' academic performance is the focus of the
dependent variable.
Definition of Terms
Covid-19: is an infectious disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus.
Effect: seems to be the result of a circumstance or incident that

sparked a shift. The fact that anything changed, regardless of how
significant or insignificant the effect, makes the noun form of effect so
crucial.
Academic Performance: the level of achievement of a student's,

teacher's, or institution's short- or long-term educational goals as
determined by either continuous assessment or other methods.
Student: scholars, and learners in particular include everyone who

takes classes, studies, is a careful and methodical observer, and is a
student of politics.
Lockdown: This refers to a measure implemented to restrict

movement and prevent the spread of a disease, such as COVID-19.
This can include measures such as quarantines, curfews, and the
closure of non-essential businesses and institutions.
Blended learning: This refers to a mix of online and face-to-face

instruction.
Online learning: This refers to education that is delivered via the

internet, where students and teachers may not be in the same physical
location. This can include fully online courses, as well as blended
courses that combine online and in-person instruction.
Face-to-face interaction: This refers to in-person communication or

interaction between individuals.
CHAPTER II
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
This chapter presents the relevant literature and studies that the
researchers’ considered in strengthening the importance of the present
study. It also presents the synthesis of the art to fully understand the
research for better comprehension of the study.
Foreign
Although not many studies have been done exploring the effects of
COVID-19 on the academic performance of students and assessing
their level of satisfaction with online teaching during the outbreak of
COVID-19, but the researcher made an effort to find out the most
related studies concerning the present study. Regrettably, the outbreak
of COVID-19 affected greatly almost all the educational levels in
different contexts across the globe and have been incorporated into the
educational settings to have possible provision for teachers and
students (Oyinloye, 2020). A study conducted by Gonzalez, Rubia, et
al. (2020) examined the impacts of COVID-19 confinement on the
performance of students at the higher education level. They used field
experimental research with 458 learners by two groups: control and
experimental. Surprisingly, their research revealed that COVID-19
confinement left a positive impact on the performance of the students
and helped them to enhance the learning strategies of the students.
Similarly, another study was carried out by Realyvásquez-Vargas et
al. (2020) explored whether the environmental factors affect students’
academic performance during COVID-19. To do this research, they
found that students’ academic performance has been affected by
environmental factors during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Furthermore, Elhadary et al. (2020) evaluated the impacts of COVID-

19 on the academic performance of science and social science students
in Turkey. Their findings showed that many factors affected the
academic performance of the students during the COVID-19 crisis.
Despite that, their study also revealed that both teachers and students
are satisfied with the application of online learning and teaching.
Loton et al. (2020) studied online learning during the COVID-19
pandemic with their satisfaction and performance. The result of their

findings showed that there is a significant impact on both
performances of the students and their level of satisfaction with online
teaching and learning during the COVID-19 outbreak. Likewise,
another study conducted in Indonesian context where the researcher
explored the solution, advantages and constraints with online learning
during the COVID-19 pandemic. They have discussed their
participant’s satisfaction on the performance of the students during the
COVID-19 outbreak (Fatoni et al., 2020).
Concerning the satisfaction level of students with online teaching

during the COVID-19 pandemic, many studies have been done by
many researchers. A study conducted by Almusharraf and Khahro
(2020) investigated the level of students’ satisfaction with online
learning during the outbreak of COVID-19. The result of their study
revealed that all the participants were greatly satisfied with online
learning tools and platforms. Their study also showed that students
were satisfied with the support provided by staff during the COVID-
19 crisis. While another study was conducted in Kazakhstan to
explore distance learning and the parents’ satisfaction during the
COVID-19 pandemic of the educational quality. Their findings
indicate that parents’ level of satisfaction with online learning is
positively correlated, while numbers in children have negatively
correlated to the satisfaction of parents with online learning platforms
during the COVID-19. Overall, their satisfaction with the quality of
online learning is greatly positive (Bokayev et al., 2021). The findings
of a study revealed by Baber (2020) are in line with the indicated
studies where the researcher found a positively great level of
satisfaction in providing online teaching. In contrast, the findings of
the study revealed by Sharma et al. (2020) indicated that the majority
of their respondents are dissatisfied with online learning platforms.
Similarly, the findings of a study revealed by Dinh and Nguyen (2020)
show that online teaching and learning had a lower satisfaction level
than face-to-face teaching.
Besides, many other studies explored the level of satisfaction with

online teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic in various contexts
and found a high level of satisfaction with online teaching (Chen et
al., 2020; Choe et al., 2019; Fatani, 2020). On the other hand, Alanazi
et al. (2020) studied technology satisfaction and students’ performance
in online courses. They reported that there was a weaker relationship
between students’ performance and technology satisfaction in online
courses. While there was another study carried out in China by Chen
et al. (2020) analyzing students’ satisfaction level with online teaching
during the outbreak of COVID-19. The findings of their study showed
no direct effects found on students’ satisfaction by personal factors,
while the availability of online applications had the greatest impact on

students’ satisfaction level.
Given that Afghanistan is one of the low-income countries around the

world along with less infrastructure of ICT at the public universities
(McMahon et al., 2020; Noori et al. 2020). Online teaching and
learning as a new phenomenon remained unacquainted to the students
and most of the teachers (Hashemi, 2020). Lack of pedagogical
training in using technological devices and applications, the high cost
of Wi-Fi, and lack of electricity with a shortage of devices for
providing online teaching environments are the key barriers towards
online education (Hashemi & Kew, 2021). Hence, during the
pandemic of COVID-19 in Afghanistan, multiple challenges and
dissatisfaction, and uncertainty of the application with online teaching
were reported. Based on personal experiences, most of the students
did not participate in the online session and their engagement in the
online classes was so weak. On the other hand, the uncertainty of
using applications and platforms made the students to be confused
about taking part in online teaching sessions. For example, HELMS
was introduced by the MoHE of Afghanistan as the alternative
application and platform responding to COVID-19, but instead, most
of the teachers were willing to teach their students through Google
Classroom, WhatsApp, and or other social Medias platform. This
uncertainty of using the platforms lead the student to be dissatisfied
and surely affected their performance in online teaching.
Despite that, it was also reported that female students were not willing
to take part in the online sessions and did not accomplish the assigned
task due to some unpleasant culture and/or inequality in terms of
having money to buy electronic devices such as a computer, mobile
and/or pay the cost of internet. According to Orfan (2021), these
situations are considered due to the limitation and cultural norms limit
that exists in Afghan society. These inequalities in accessing the

aforementioned devices and applications affected the academic
performance of students during the outbreak of the COVID-19 crisis
in some parts of the country and by all means dissatisfied students
from online teaching.
However, online teaching has played a crucial role in the higher

education institutions of Afghanistan during the COVID-19 pandemic,
many studies have been carried out to investigate the effects of
COVID-19 on the academic achievements of students worldwide.
Unfortunately, no studies have been done to explore the effects of
COVID-19 on the academic performance of Afghan students and their
level of satisfaction with online teaching. In this regard, the current
study is an attempt to eliminate this research gap to explore whether
COVID-19 affected the students’ performance and are they satisfied
with online teaching across the country. This study is also significant
on the rise to the literature in Afghanistan context and as well as to
provide insights for MoHE of Afghanistan, researchers, and students
to enhance their preparedness of such emergency cases in the future.
Local
The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the world. Due to the nature of
the virus, particularly how it is transmitted, it has altered human
behaviours, relations and lifestyles, and had profound impacts on the
economic, political and cultural landscapes of societies across the
world. It has likewise exacerbated poverty, discrimination and
inequalities in many parts of the world, not only through how COVID-
19 appears to be affecting poorer communities more than the rich, but
also as a consequence of the measures taken by states to control the
spread of the virus, primarily by curtailing freedom of movement
through the imposition of community quarantine, lockdowns and
curfews in many parts of the world.
As of 7 May 2020, the total number of COVID-19 cases reported in

the Philippines by the Department of Health (DOH) was 10,343 with
685 deaths and 1,680 recovered. With these figures, the Philippines
ranks third, after Singapore and Indonesia, in the number of COVID-
19 cases in Southeast Asia.
After the DOH reported the first COVID-19 case in the country,
acquired through local transmission, the Philippine President Rodrigo
R. Duterte signed Proclamation No. 922 on 8 March 2020, declaring
the country under a state of public health emergency. This was to
prevent the further spread of the disease and mitigate its effects on
communities. On 16 March, the President declared a state of calamity
throughout the Philippines for a period of six months, and imposed an
Enhanced Community Quarantine (ECQ) throughout the island of
Luzon, including Metro Manila. While originally set to last till 12

April 2020, the ECQ was later extended to 15 May 2020.
The ECQ instructed all residents to stay at home, and the closure of all
non-essential business establishments, schools and universities, public
transportation facilities, malls and shopping centres, churches and
other faith-based institutions. Checkpoints were set up in various parts
of Metro Manila and throughout Luzon as means to control movement
of people throughout the island. In essence, the ECQ meant the
suspension of the freedom of movement.
With people confined to their homes for almost two months, the most
vulnerable residents, particularly the daily wage earners covered by
the “no work, no pay” policy, and those employed in the informal
economy, have borne the brunt of these measures. The loss of their
income has forced these employees to rely on whatever assistance and
social amelioration programmes that the national government, local
government units and the private sector extend to them.

The Impact of the Lockdown on Higher Education

Higher education institutions (HEIs), both public and private, have
also had to adjust to the new situation where face-to-face interaction
and mass gatherings are prohibited. Committed to their mandate, the
leading universities and colleges in the Philippines, particularly those
affiliated with the ASEAN University Network – such as the
University of the Philippines, Ateneo de Manila University and De la
Salle University, found innovative ways to fulfil their three-pronged
tasks of education, research and service. Everyone, from the
operations and support service units, to administrators and teachers,
adjusted to work-from-home arrangements.
From the confines of their homes, teachers and administrators were

put to the task of revising and adapting course syllabi and
requirements as they shifted to alternative or remote teaching
modalities, both synchronous and asynchronous. Where students and
teachers had access to electronic devices and reliable Internet
connections, learning managements systems such as Canvas, Moodle,
Blackboard, and applications like Google Hangouts, Zoom and Skype,
were used. But where students had limited access to computers or
unreliable access to the Internet, teachers and students used
smartphones to exchange messages, notes and materials, through text
messaging, e-mail, Facebook Messenger, and Twitter.
In some instances, these arrangements became unsustainable and some

universities had to suspend remote or online classes because the
uneven socioeconomic status of students affected their access to these
modalities of learning. Also, concerns regarding the mental health of
both students and teachers affected by the uncertainty, became another
reason to suspend online classes.
CHAPTER III
Method and Procedure
This chapter focuses on the description of the researchers’ research

methodologies and procedures used to address the specific questions
for study in a systematic manner. This chapter specifically discusses
Research Design, Research Locale, Research Participants, Sample,
Setting Method, Instrumentation, Data Gathering Procedure, and
Methods of Data Analysis.
Research design
The Researchers use Descriptive Quantitative Method Research

Design. Non experimental Quantitative Research Is defined as an
attempt to connect ideas to know what are the major effects that they
have been experience while being locked down during the COVID-19
pandemic that also affects and what are their thoughts about it. This is
where a Researcher has an idea or has observe something and seeks to
understand more about it. The information being gathered to all
students of ICI BUGO CDO building, also the researchers will be
interviewing all the students about their own ideas about to the topic
"The Effects of COVID-19 pandemic to the Academic Performance of
Grade 12 Students in ICI Bugo Branch".

CHAPTER V
Summary, conclusions, and recommendations
This final chapter discusses the report's summary, conclusions, and

recommendations of the study.
Summary of the Findings
Many students suffered in distance learning, it is hard for them to

catch up and answer by just self-learning. Students were mentally
affected by the lockdown and the shift from physical person-to-
person classrooms to virtual learning. This increased the prevalence
of psychological stress, anxiety, and depression among university
students.
The findings show that the Covid-19 pandemic had mental effect to
the respondents such as significant levels of stress, anxiety and
depression.
As the study shows a lot of respondents agreed that Covid-19

affected their academic performance. For example, there is
uncertainty about how school closures last past year impacted
student achievement, as well as how the rapid conversion of most
instruction to an online platform last academic year will continue to
affect achievement.
Conclusion
This research has differents and unexpected effects of the students that
are studying at Iligan Computer Institute.COVID-19 pandemic has
caused a dramatic disruption in the delivery of education and health
services in the Philippines. With school closures and challenges in the
delivery of distance learning, students learning losses are expected to
be enormous.
Many students suffered in distance learning,it is hard for them to catch

up and answer by just self-learning. In particular, students were
physically and mentally affected by the lockdown and the shift from
physical person-to-person classrooms to virtual learning (online
classes). This increased the prevalence of psychological stress,
anxiety, and depression among university students.
In general, students showed an improvement in their academic

performance during the confinement caused by the COVID-19
pandemic, compared to the period before this. We concluded that the
interaction with family, more parental supervision, the possibility to
perform hobbies and other activities in addition to study, and the
method used by the educational institute to adapt a non-face-to-face
modality and all the support for the student’s requirements, may have
influenced this difference on their academic performance. It has been
shown in this study that Covid 19 have a big impact on the academic
performance of the students in ICI BUGO. It remains to be seen how
long this pandemic will live, but there is hope that ICI'ans teachers
through the ministry of education will devise intervention measures
that will benefit all students that are going to school. A lot of
respondents are in favor of educational system administ of covid 19
pandemic lockdown. Some students considered Covid 19 pandemic
lockdown affect the students mental capabilities. Some respondent
believe that precautionary measure in covid 19 pandemic can affect
your academic performance. Some respondents didn't experience signs
of mental illness during the COVID-19 lockdown. Some respondents
didn't believe that Covid 19 pandemic affect all levels of education,
but many of students believe that the COVID-19 pandemic affect all
levels of education.
Therefore we as a researcher conclude that living conditions during

lockdown had a clear impact on the student’s academic performance.
Recommendation
The following recommendations are offered by the researcher, focus

on the key points that affects student's academic performances
during the Covid-19 pandemic:
1. For Students, stay connected to others. It’s easy for students to

feel isolated and cut off from other people in this COVID learning
environment.
2. For Parents, parents can be a guide and an encouragement to their

children.
3.For School, lead other student in taking actions specially in Covid19

protocols.4. For Future Researchers, The study could be use as
references for other related studies in the future.
4.For Teachers, allow students to share their reflections on their

learnings.
5.For Community, exert a lot of effort and diligence in order to

address the challenges of COVID-19 and to provide opportunities for
continuing our education.
